The most expensive plane ever built
If you consider yourself to be by his own passion for aviation, then welcome to the club! Planes, helicopters, rockets, airplanes … they call it, we know. Certainly you've been to many exhibitions and performances aircraft international air and it has always been your dream to own at least a fascinating aircraft. now buy an airplane is not a joke. Owning one is a luxury you need to save for, not unless you're a baby "billions of dollars." But if you intend you've saved enough money, here's the Top 10 most expensive, not to mention extravagant aircraft that might interest you. 1. <b> B2 "Stealth Bomber / b Advanced Technology> – Northrop Grumman's "Cost Spirit 'Bombers somewhere between $ 737,000,000 and 2.2 billion dollars with a cool $ 1.3 billion per plane, the figure most often cited. The B-2 is somewhat observable, strategic, long-term, heavy bomber capable of penetrating sophisticated and dense air defense shields. It is able to address all missions up to 50,000 feet altitude, with a range of over 6000 nm without refueling and over 10,000 nm with a refueling, giving it the ability to fly anywhere in the world in hours. It served against the powerful air defenses of Serbia, the Taliban, and Iraq. 2. Airbus <b> <A380 / b>-designed to take large economies of scale by carrying more people than other airplanes of more or less the same cost of fuel, it costs 300 million dollars. While most of the fuselage is aluminum, composite materials represent over 20% of the airframe of the A380. Carbon fiber reinforced plastic Glass fiber reinforced plastic and quartz-fiber reinforced plastic are used extensively in wings, fuselage sections (such as being late and rear fuselage), tail, and doors. From 2012, Airbus offers an optional, enhanced maximum take off, giving better performance and load / beach. 3. <b> H4 Hercules aka "Spruce Goose" </ b> – Built by billionaire industrialist Howard Hughes, the world's largest aircraft was actually birch not spruce. Costing an estimated $ 25 million in 1940 prices was the largest seaplane ever built with the larger. It was built after a request from the Government of the United States in 1942 for a cargo and troop transport that would not sensitive to the submarines of the Axis and not use materials critical of war by the substitution of wood for the metal in its construction. 4. VH-71 Kestrel <b> </ b> – The high-tech replacement for the big Presidential Green "Marine One" we often see taking off from the lawn of the White House, South Kestrel 241 million dollars has been abandoned by Obama when he discovered he was running 50% over budget, but it was rejected. The total acquisition cost for the VH-71 presidential helicopter replacement program is expected to increase from 6.5 billion to 11.2 billion. 5. F22 Raptor <b> </ b> – It was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but has capacity include additional attack, electronics, and the role of signal intelligence. Invisible to radar in stealth mode, it can shoot down cruise missiles and cover great distances at supersonic speeds. The F-22 is highly maneuverable, at both subsonic and supersonic speeds. It is extremely strong start allowing it to remain controllable at extreme input drivers. . But only seven of these costs were $ 1.67 billion. 6. <b> P-8A Poseidon </ b> – your $ 290 million loan for this war long-range anti-submarine, anti-surface and intelligence, surveillance and aircraft recognition. 7. <b> V-22 Osprey </ b> – Part-plane, half helicopter, the 118 million Bell-Boeing tilt-rotor off vertically, but can fly farther and faster than a helicopter. It is designed to combine the functionality of a conventional helicopter long distance, speed cruise performance of a large turboprop aircraft. 8. <b> Gulfstream> G550 </ b> – 60 million dollars each, it is a solid device with an international scope. Powered by Rolls-Royce BR710 turbofan strengthened, the G550 have a range 6,750 nm at Mach 0.80 and a capacity for high-speed cruise of Mach 0.87. All this clearly appealed to the owners, who include many celebrities, Phillip Green, Greg Norman and Rush Limbaugh. The owners of the Light least expensive G5 includes Apple boss Steve software mogul Larry Ellison and Hollywood Jim Carrey. 9. <b> Citation X </ b> – A cruise speed of Mach .92 or 607 mph means it is not only on the fastest jet in the history of business, but now, the fastest civilian jet money can buy. A significant amount of effort at throughout the design process has been directed towards reducing the total drag Citation X. The resulting design includes an area-ruled fuselage for efficient transonic flight, and the above highly swept supercritical wing. The wing of the Citation X is suspended below the fuselage rather that pass through it. This allows an increased volume in the fuselage, a piece of wing and fuselage to simplify connections wing. 10. <b> Pilatus PC-12 </ b> – Able to cover 2.239 nautical miles between refills, at 310 km / h, it is more expensive than a single-engine prop jobs to obtain 3.5 million. Most PC-12 are used as means of transport companies, but recent regulatory changes in Australia, Brazil, Canada and the United States have allowed single-engine turboprops such as the PC-12 for regional passenger transport in these countries.

Multi Engine vs. single engine?
I was looking at Seminole multi engine aircraft Piper and noticed that cruising speed is 124/mph where, as a single engine Piper Cherokee cruises 168/mph. Since the only engine is faster than the Multi-Engine, why spend the money additional purchase or lease of the multi-engine airplane?
As shown, the numbers are low PA44 … The PA44 I flew ages ago was good for about 150ish knots normal cruise, and the model PA28 covers everything from the speed set at 140 HP 200 HP with a retractable cruising speed of 120 kt to 145 kt … go faster is much money .. The reason is that the drag increases as the square of the speed, direction that if you increase the speed of 80-160 knots, the drag will quadruple. Since the thrust is needed to overcome the drag, it would take four times push to double your speed. Four times the thrust requires four times more fuel … At $ 3.50 per gallon and 10 gallons an hour for a 180 engine HP is about $ 35.00 an hour FOUR times …. If a multiengine aircraft offers a benefit is in the redundancy of systems (two engines, two generators, two vacuum systems). Having a second engine allows more choice when it closes … On the other hand, two engines have twice the probability of breaking something. A second engine also provides better climb performance. Rate of climb depends on the excess energy. This is sorta like the difference in the conduct of 80 HP 4 cylinder and V6 econocar 300HP Camaro. The 80 hp car will barely climb a note at full throttle for the Camaro will accelerate up, because it has excess power available. If an aircraft has an engine of 180 HP and 80 HP is required for level flight, there will be 100 HP available for climbing. If you add another magic 180hp engine, you now have 280 horsepower available for climbing, which will result in a higher rate of climb, and more service ceiling. The price of these benefits are twice the fuel flow, twice the cost of engine maintenance and higher insurance rates.
